No one is born a winner. People make themselves into winners by their own 1
I learned this lesson from a(n) 2 many years ago. I took the head 3 job at a school in Baxley, Georgia. It was a small school with a weak football program.
It was a tradition for the school’s old team to play ag ainst the 4 team at the end of spring practice. The old team had no coach, and they didn’t even practice to 5 the game. Being the coach of the new team, I was excited because I knew we were going to win, but to my disappointment we were defeate d. I couldn’t 6 I had got into such a situation. Thinking hard about it, I came to 7 that my team might not be the number one team in Georgia, but they were 8 me. I had to change my 9 about their ability and potential.
I started doing anything I could to help them build a little 10 . Most important, I began to treat them like 11 . That summer, when the other teams enjoyed their 12 , we met every day and 13 passing and kicking the football.
Six months after suffering our 14 on the spring practice field, we won our first game and our second, and continued to 15 . Finally, we faced the number one team in the state. I felt that it would be a 16 for us even if we lost the game. But that wasn’t what hap pened. My boys beat the best team in Georgia, giving me one of the greatest 17 of my life！
From the experience I learnt a lot about how the attitude of the leader can 18 the members of a team. Instead of seeing my boys as losers, I pushed and 19 them. I helped them to see themselves 20 , and they built themselves into winners.
Winners are made, but born.

Eric Moussambani, a swimmer from Equatorial Guinea, won brief international fame at Sydney’s 2000 Olympic Games for an extremely unlikely victory.
Twelve months before the Olympics, Moussambani had never gone outside of his home country, an extremely poor tiny African nation. Having 1 his admission into the Olympic Games, Moussambani set about teaching himself to 2 . The only pool that was 3 belonged to a local hotel, and they 4 him to use it between 5 and 6 am, three times a week. Before Sydney he had never set eyes on an Olympic 5 , let alone practiced in one. Moussambani had no 6 , no lanes（泳道）, and no way of tracking his efforts. Worse still, he didn’t know he had been entered in to the 100m race, not the 50m he had 7 .
When the day came, events got 8 . Of the three competitors in the first round, Moussambani was the 9 competitor who was not removed from the game for starting early.

It was the slowest time in Olympic history, 13 a personal best.
International media 14 him ‘Eric the eel’ and a real model of the Olympic 15 that it’s not the winning, but the taking part that 16 . When he was 17 after the race, Moussambani said, “At first I got worried that I couldn’t 18 . Thinking of the dear people 19 me, I kept on and it happened.”
Moussambani never gives up. He is now the head coach of the national team and thanks to his 20 , the country has built two 40m pools.

Mastery of a language is one of the greatest 1 that one can ever have. Many people have a passion (激情) for learning languages. Human language evolve (进化) from hand gestures and other signs that people used to 2 with each other. Ancient people started with drawing 3 about what they wanted to say, which later on evolved into some languages, after which many other dialects (方言) have come into 4 . With over 2,700 different languages and 7,000 dialects 5 all over the world, the world has many different cultures that 6 speak their native dialects.

translation services that 10 people how to actually speak the language. This language alone has hundreds of different dialects that are used by people depending on what 11 they are at. It is 12 that people who speak 13 languages find it difficult to communicate with each other because of the difference in dialect; 14 , just like every other language, this language also has a standard language which is used in broadcasts, newspapers, magazines and even in 15 that teach Arabic as their second language.
So if you want to 16 what a person who has a different Arabic dialect is trying to say, you would need the 17 of Arabic translation services. As mentioned earlier, they teach this language; however, you need to have enough time to learn it 18 it is also known to be one of the most 19 languages that one can learn. In fact, many university students who major in this language get help from these agencies, making it 20 for them to learn it.

London taxi drivers know the capital like the back of their hands. Just jump into one of the city's 22,000 distinctive black cars and tell the driver your 1 .However small the street is, the driver will be able to get you there without any trouble.
The reason why London taxi drivers are so 2 is that they have all 3 a very tough training period to get the special license to drive taxis. During this period, taking two to four years in general, the wouldbe taxi driver has to learn the most direct 4 to every single road and to every important building in London. 5 this, most learners go around the city on small motorbikes, 6 how to move to and from different points of the city.
Learner taxi drivers are tested several times during the period by government officers. Most drivers think the exams are a terrible 7 .
Learner drivers are not allowed to work—and earn money—as drivers, either. Therefore, many of them keep their 8 jobs until they obtain their taxidriving license. The training period can cost quite a lot because learners have to pay for their own expenses—getting around London using 9 transport, the tests and a medical exam.
Once a new taxi driver has a license, the 10 thing to deal with is the public. Drivers agree that most passengers are very nice, although 11 they can be annoying. 12 , if they're unpleasant to their passenger, they won't get a tip.
But sometimes it's not only the tip that is 13 ， a taxi driver's job can also be dangerous. To avoid this, more and more drivers are joining radio taxi companies, which only deal with customers who have phoned for a taxi and who often have an account with them. The big 14 of this system is that drivers then know the names and the destinations of their passengers
15 ， which is very useful if anything 16 happens.
London taxi drivers love to talk to people and most of them start a 17 as soon as the passenger steps into their vehicle. Talking and driving at the same time is the art that London taxi drivers have brought to 18 . They and their taxis are a 19 of the capital and are 20 throughout the world, along with the Queen, Tower Bridge and Big Ben.

There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world. But only a few of them are very 1 . English is one of them. Many people 2 it，not only in England and the USA, but in other parts of the world. About 20 million speak it 3 their native language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a 4 language. Many millions are 5 to do so.
Is it easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different 6 . Have you ever 7 such advertisements (广告) in the newspapers or magazines? “Learn English in six weeks, or your 8 back...”Of course, it never 9 quite like this.

When he is using the language, taking in it, 14 all the time, just imagine how much 15 that he gets!
So it is 16 to say that learning English is easy 17 a good command(掌握) of English depends on(取决于)a lot of practice. And practice needs great effort and 18 much time. Sometimes teachers，records，tapes，books，and dictionaries will 19 . But they can't do the student's 20 for him. 21cnjy

This year my husband and I decided to have a quiet, low-key New Year's Eve. We wanted to spend it with our kids and other immediate family and make it a special 1 for them, instead of 2 a babysitter and going out on our own. The logical way to do this was through 3 . As we all know, food had a magical way of making; a night 4 , and our New Year's Eve certainly 5 that way, thanks to doughnuts(甜甜圈).
I decided to make doughnuts because my cousins had 6 a batch(一批) on Halloween and
I found it very 7 . I used a recipe from the 1976 Mennonite cookbook More With Less and it 8
a curious ingredient---two cups of mashed potatoes that 9 made the texture lighter. The doughnuts were 10 and cut from a sheet of dough(生面团), then left to rise until ready to fry
in hot oil. Then they took several seconds to 11 , which meant that my enormous batch of 100 doughnuts was 12 cooking in a fairly short time. We glazed(浇上浆液) the tops and then 13 them for the rest of the evening. The leftovers disappeared at breakfast.
This will become an annual 14 , I have no doubt. Whether we host a bigger party or keep
it small, there will always be 15 doughnuts, because when you have hot homemade doughnuts, you can't help but have the best time.
